Charleston, West Virginia

Ball Parks

Listed

Year Opened: 2005Former Notable Players: Ryan BraunNotes: Located in the East End of West Virginia's capital,
the state capitol building is visible down
the right field foul line. The $23 million park succeeded the aging
Watt Powell
Park as the home of professional baseball in Charleston. The
naming rights were sold to Appalachian Power, the regional unit
of American Electric Power, an electric utility. The opening of
the park was delayed one year and the park was still not completed
for opening day in 2005, as the awnings covering parts of the concourse
had not been installed.
